War Pigeon - Midas Fall

Bend your surprise round the human disaster

Feed her with thoughts and a tired lullaby

Hypnotised steps to the lull of the birdsong

With me you’ll waltz to the sounds in your head

I bought my luck and I bought my time

I had my chance and lost a mile

Now I won’t be long, just time to sigh

I had my chance and lost both times

These city ruins breed the human disaster

She knows she’s been drunk if there’s dirt in her nails

And listens to birdsong to find her way home

I bought my luck and I bought my time

Won’t you lead me now?
